Hi, I'm not an active developer of KiCad regarding to the source code, but may I suggest to look at git-send-email [1] that almost solves such problems with embedded patchsets. And mostly for all systems you are working with, I'm not sure about Windows but should be possible by using msmtp [2].

This problem isn't new and not only happen to KiCad. The Linux kernel is dealing with such challenges for a long time. Since the introducing of Git as the new VCS for the linux kernel development there was also introduced a perl script after some times that is mailing a set of patches. There are plenty good websites out there which describing the usage of git-send-email [3]. It's free software so don't hesitate to copy and past. :-) For testing you can simply mail patches or sets of patches to yourself. I'd glad to help to write something for the website on kicad-pcb.org.
